My Thanksgiving Manicure: OPI Warm & Fozzie

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!  I know everyone will be super busy cooking and stuffing their faces today (At least I will be!), so I'll make this short and sweet - just wanted to share my Turkey Day manicure with you guys!  I went with OPI Warm & Fozzie, a polish I actually received in a swap about a month ago, but I immediately decided it was so perfect for Thanksgiving, I had to save it.  :-)

Warm & Fozzie is kind of hard to describe.  Let's see if I can even remotely come close.  It's a brownish bronze-y foil with flashes of gold, orange, and even green.  It looks super duochrome-y in the bottle, but you lose a bit of that on the nail (seems to be the M.O. of most duochromes).  The formula is pretty good - I just tend to always fight with foils for some reason.  I used two kind of thick-ish coats here, but I'd recommend doing three if you can do thinner coats.  Ok, now I'll let the photos do the talking...

Warm & Fozzie - what an adorable name, and completely perfect for this polish.  It really is warm and cozy and a perfect for fall.  Plus, it's also named after my second favorite Muppet (next to Kermit, of course)!  When I was a kid, I had a teddy bear of the Muppet Babies Fozzie.  I loved it so much, I could never get rid of it, even when I was a teenager.  I thought I'd save it for my child.  Well, Hurricane Katrina had other thoughts regarding that!  Even so, it's nice to have such a beautiful reminder of my childhood.  Plus, you can't go wrong with a Muppets polish on Thanksgiving!

The OPI Muppets collection is available now in retail locations.  If you're not into huge, chunky glitters, the shimmers side of the collection is really beautiful, and I heartily recommend Warm & Fozzie.  It's beautiful.  I may need to re-wear it when we go watch the Muppet movie!

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!  Eat so much it hurts!!  :-D

  1. Awwww, I love this on you!!! LOL, do you remember when McDonald's had those Muppet Babies stuffed toys? They came in a 3-pack with Kermit, Miss Piggy and Fozzie ... I can't remember if it was because my sister & I were allergic to the material on Fozzie, but we had to give him away. :'( My Kermit & Miss Piggy are sooooo beat up looking, but I will always love them!

  2. Yes!!! OMG, Rach, I could KISS you!!! That's EXACTLY what my Fozzie bear was!! I had NO idea where he came from, since obviously I was just a baby when I got him, but I'm SO happy you mentioned that! They've got a few on ebay that I might have to cave on. :-)
